Synopsis
As Ariel arrives at school, he notices that his friend Dudu is absent. The reason? He’s come down with a cold. In the mind of a child whose main task is going to school, being absent can signal full permission for playtime. And who doesn’t want to play all day? Getting a cold may be commonplace for some children, but not for Ariel. (K.M.)
